Default Mustangtuning X-pipe

Just wondering if anyone has any experience with the Mustangtuning off road x. I was thinking about ordering it but want to know if its a good pipe that will give some good power. I have a flowmaster 40's and an automatic if that helps at all. Thanks.

I think there's a bunch of guys over at StangNet who got this. You may want to search their forum. I think there may even be a sound clip on there. It is supposed to be bad *** and sound great with flows. I'd get one but I want Stainless. I'm waiting for MT to start carrying the MagnaFlow Catted X.

Should work fine as long as you have a baffled muffler of some type. Don't add an o/r X when using resonators as you loose too much on the bottom and it is as loud as D Day.

If you didnt listen to the sound clips of it over on stangnet, do it. Youll be online ordering that pipe in no time flat if you listen to it. It sounds amazing and supposedly fits great and performs well. Good luck.

Default Speaking of X-pipes...

I've heard that Bassani X pipes are the easiest to install. How about those MT pipes? Anyone know? Thx

Hardest part is the passenger side manifold bolts, spray with plenty of penetrating fluid, have about 18" worth of extentions and you should be good to go. You will need the gasket for the passenger side as well, get from local ford dealer, that is all.

How much low end is lost with an o/r h. I've got a Mac Prochamber with flowmaster 40's and was considering it. What do you think?

So, since SLP's Loud Mouth system has a shotgun resonator, the o/r system would cause me to lose too much low-end HP/torque? Am I understanding you right?

Well, im not a big fan of the magnaflows but I heard a mustang with a UPR x pipe and magnaflows on stangnet and it didnt sound too bad. Im such a flowmaster guy though.

I have a catted Bassani x with FLowmaster 2 chamber on stock pipes. I added a sound clip in the video section if you want to listen to it. Its not difficult if you have long enough extesions and apply wd40 to the bolts. The tought side to remove was a bolt on the passenger side exhaust manifold. I ended up routing a wrench through the kmember somewhere to break it loose as I could not get a good angle on it with my socket. Not only does it make your stang sound awesome but removes alot of weight as the stock ones are super heavy.
